Talked with Jeff about this the other day, and your conjecture is correct. Checking for new mails in all folders takes considerably longer with a lot of folders than it does with just a few. > It would be nice to be able to monitor specific IMAP folders rather than > all of them. Has anyone filed a feature request for this? Feel free to file a request, I guess... > Note that some of the folders are shared, i.e. mail arrives in them "by > magic" and not via Evo, so there's no chance of invoking a filter. Which is just fine and quite common for IMAP. :) Otherwise "check for new mail in all folders" would not make sense at all. ;) ...guenther -- char *t="[EMAIL PROTECTED]"; main(){ char h,m=h=*t++,*x=t+2*h,c,i,l=*x,s=0; for (i=0;i<l;i++){ i%8? c<<=1: (c=*++x); c&128 && (s+=h); if (!(h>>=1)||!t[s+h]){ putchar(t[s]);h=m;s=0; }}} _______________________________________________ Evolution-list mailing list Evolution-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
